The term ‘power quality’ [1-2] refers to the purity of the voltage and current wave-form, and a power quality disturbance is a deviation from the pure sinusoidal form. Harmonics superimposed on the fundamental are one cause of such deviations. Power quality problems [1-2] like voltage harmonics, voltage flickers, voltage sags and voltage swells, current harmonics, current unbalance, reactive cu...

Active power filters most of the times are employed for elimination of the harmonics created by non-linear loads in power system and for reactive power compensation of linear and non-linear loads. Compensating current is sent by shunt active power filter (SAF) at Point of Common Coupling (PCC) to mitigate current harmonics in the line. Hence sinusoidal nature of current and voltage waveforms ar...

The Electrical power system contains a wide range of electrical and power electronics components in industrial and commercial applications. The power quality will be affected by various factors like ripples contamination, voltage sag and voltage swells due to the increase in loads of non-linear type like large power electronics converters such as IGBT and GTO, rectifiers, voltage and current gl...

phase stand-alone inverter is caused by unbalanced load and a dead time distorts inverter output voltage more unsymmetrically. When the inverter supplies unbalanced load, three phase output voltages include unbalanced odd harmonics but dq-axis voltages at synchronous reference frame have even harmonics with different magnitude each other. In this paper, a new compensation method is proposed to ...

Abstract—this paper describes control of 3-phase shunt active filter by using PI, fuzzy and ANFIS controls to improve the power quality and reactive power compensation and harmonic current compensation due to nonlinear loads. The controller is capable of controlling the DC capacitor voltage capable of reference source current. Hysteresis control is used to control the current in PWM inverter. T...
